Why did we choose this topic "Dirty & Locked Bathrooms"



We chose this topic because 58 bathrooms and only 10 are unlocked. Also, the 10 bathrooms that are open are dirty. Students are reasonable for these dirty bathrooms. We would like to hold to students accountable and fix this dirty issue in bathrooms.

Root Cause


Students had lack of cares of bathrooms in school. For example, people don't flash, people misbehave in the bathroom.

Problems Caused


:long waits and missing a lot of class
:lack of supplies
:over 1000 students using 10 bathrooms in school

Goal


Bring awareness to why bathrooms are locked/dirty and show consequences of lack of care.
